I' m at the moment very sick, having two swollen knees and a CRP of 159, ESR 90.
I'm waiting for the proffessionals to decide on another biolocical drug.
I'm on Orencia now which has stopped to help, after a flu my RA flared up.

I wonder if some of you here have the same experience with this high CRP?
I always had a very active RA (for 20 years) but It's scary now with this flare up.

Remicade, Enbrel and Humira really helped me but I had to stop due to side effects.

Really hate this disease!! :x

Love
Anna in Sweden

    iv had a crp of that level before but not with my arthritis, with something else so not really much help. I hope they find a treatment that works for you.

    Thanks, It really helps to talk to people in the same situation. This disease is challenging to say the least.
    Some times you just want to disappear from the face of the earth....

    Love
